Chapter 12 : True Feelings

Tsukune brought his hand up to the little girl's cheeks and wiped off the remaining tears that refused to go away.

Yukari gave him a small smile and waved as she opened the door and stepped out into the hallway where she soon be joining the others in the pool seeing as she could hear Kurumu's and Mizore's squels from inside the house.

I guess this is the only way...This isn't as bad as I thought it would be...Yukari thought to herself as her face lit up and she skipped to her dorm and prepared herself for the pool with several items that she lay flat out on her bed.

After applying the sun block, she dropped her towel and some extra clothes into a bag that she had brought with her on Kurumu's notice.

Then, she changed into a swimsuit and ran towards the pool.

Tsukune sat on his bed by himself thinking over all the events that had taken place. Letting out a sigh, he decided to join the rest of the girls in the pool.

He sat up off the bed and dropped a bunch of clothes and a towel into a bag and he ran towards the pool.

On the way to the pool, his thoughts suddenly focused on a sole person. Ura.

Lost in his thoughts, he was unaware of where he was going and had coincidently knocked someone over in the process.

Letting out a groan he looked down towards the person he had just knocked down.

"Ahh. Sorr-" Tsukune said as his eyes fell upon the person.

His eyes lit up suddenly and his heart did a little dance in his chest as his eyes widened in shock.

His heart thumped madly in his chest as he cursed his luck.

"U-Ura?" Tsukune let out.

"T-Tsukune?" Ura responded, still in shock.

"H-hey..." Tsukune said as he suddenly noticed how close the two were. Ura was knocked below him on the ground with only her swimsuit on when he had ran into her. One of her legs were arched up and the other lay flat against the cool pool deck.

One of her hands was positioned slightly behind the back of her head and the other was hanging down at her side. Her stomach slightly arched up to avoid the coolness of the ground as she stared into the boy above her, unable to decide if she should be mad at him for being clumsy again.

Tsukune was above Ura with his left kneecap pressing on the floor between her legs. Both of his arms were pressed on either side of her, posing no escape for the vampire.

They stared at each other until suddenly Ura felt a burning sensation in her chest that seemed to grow stronger by the second. In a few seconds it had completely enveloped her body head to toe and she only wished that Tsukune didn't notice it.

Seemingly moving by itself, Ura brought her right hand up to the boy's cheek slowly and traced his prominent cheekbones with her thumb finger.

Her other hand went up the side of his neck and curled around the back of his neck.

What...What the heck?!This can't actually be happening...Tsukune thought to himself silently as the vampire continued.

Suddenly, Tsukune felt like he was being reeled in somehow. Noticing the cunning vampire had already had a hand around his neck he realized that it was her.

Ura was the one pulling him closer.

She lifted up her neck and stared into Tsukune's eyes. Tsukune felt her hair brush his hands and shoulders as she sat up slightly.

A chill went down his spine and he wondered how it could be so soft. Suddenly noticing that his arms were already wrapped around her waist and how close they were he cursed himself out loud.

Upon opening his mouth to speak Ura had somehow even moved in closer and he felt his lips graze hers as his opened.

The touch between his lips and hers made Tsukune almost shudder. Just the tiny exchange of their lips had made Tsukune close his eyes as he tried to stop himself. ...I don't get her...One moment she is yelling at me to never have anything to do with her, the next...well...the next it's like she wants us to...

To what?

What the? Who the hell are you?

Who? Me?

Well yea...it's only...you and me in here...right?

You seriously don't know who I am?

Nope. Not a clue

*sigh* I am you...

You're me? How is that even possible?

I'm actually your conscience...

My conscience huh...I guess that makes sense...

So...Continue...

Continue what? OHHH...that...Wait no why should I? That's kind of...private...

...I am your conscience. I know everything about you because I am you...

Oh well then...Soo...

Seems that you have lost your"words" to continue. Well since I know everything about you how about I start it...

You were saying something about not understanding her? Seems to me like you are mad... Oh hah. That was ironic...

...

Oh cmon...Since I am you...and I know that you are mad...

...

Oh alright fine...never mind it...So, anyways, continue...

Well, I just don't get her...One moment she hates me and the next it's like she wants me to...to...

*silence*

Hello?

...

Hello?

What the heck...that was so weird...

Tsukune blinked a couple times to escape the confines of his mental conversation that had just occurred.

Realizing that he and Ura were still almost touching lips, he stood frozen, glued to the spot, uncertain on if he should pull back or whether he should close the distance between the two.

Tsukune turned away to hide the blush that had formed on his cheeks and removed an arm from her side.

Taking a glance at the vampire , he saw that her eyes were full of confusion and a small strand of sadness but there was something else in her eyes. Her blood red eyes...

Anger. Overwhelming anger not directed towards Tsukune but herself.

"U-Ura?" Tsukune questioned unsure of what would occur next.

"..."

The Vampire did not respond but instead moved toward the boy in front of her and placed her hand over his.

Tsukune's head whipped around to find Ura's hand resting over his own. Their eyes locked as the breeze picked up around them, sending a few leaves into the air and causing Ura's hair to flutter in the wind.

Gulp...Her hands are so...delicate and soft...NO! No! You can't be thinking about those things right now Tsukune!

The vampire waited for a reaction or some kind of response to what she had just done. Why am I touching him? What the heck...Why do I keep...thinking about him...

No matter how much Ura tried to get Tsukune out of her mind it was impossible. The boy had somehow burned himself into her mind.

She looked at the boy in front of her, his eyes also confused. The hand that Ura had placed onto Tsukune almost drove her insane. She wanted more...so much more...God...What is this feeling...Ura asked herself mentally.

Why do I...keep thinking about him!

She found herself in that particular moment that what she wanted was...his lips...NO! What I am thinking of...

Without thinking of what she was doing, she leaned over and with one hand still placed over Tsukune, she brought herself into kissing distance with Tsukune.

"T-Tsukune..." Ura whispered out in a soft voice.

Tsukune's heart thumped hard in his chest as he said, "Ura..."

Their lips by now were almost dripping in anticipation.

A blush formed on Ura's cheeks and Tsukune's face was almost completely flushed but the two continued to move in together slowly, drawn by something they couldn't identify.

They stopped a mere centime away from each other's lips, their cheek flushed as the two panted.

(EDIT: I DID NOT FORGET THAT THE TWO ARE VAMPIRES BUT WILL NOT BE "BLOODSUCKING" UNTIL THE FINAL CHAPTERS FOR MORE OF A..."Better" Image... :D)

Kurumu's head broke through the surface of the cool water above her as she gasped in the luscious air.

Mizore and Kurumu had been playing Marko Polo in the pool but Kurumu soon found it boring without anyone else and had told Mizore to wait in the pool.

Kurumu waded over to the stairs and climbed out of the pool. She walked over to the chairs and used the towel to dry herself off. Kurumu cupped her hands around her mouth and yelled, "Tsukune!"

"..."

"Tsukune!" Kurumu tried again.

"..."

"Damn, where did he go? He still hasn't returned with our drinks yet." Kurumu said.

Her feet came in contact with the wet pool deck as she wiped off her moist body and jogged towards the mansion, looking for Tsukune and the others. She opened the heavy door and walked the hallway. It was dimly lit and the red carpet did nothing to help to weird feeling she was getting. She quickened her pace.

She turned the corner and found Tsukune and Ura, on the floor, with their lips barely touching each others.

Time seemed to freeze at that point. Kurumu's eyes grew wider and she opened her mouth to say something but no words would follow. She was still in shock at what she saw and tried again to no avail.

"No, no, no, no, no!" Kurumu thought. "He's supposed to be with me, not her."

She tried one last time and managed to say, "What are you doing Tsukune?"

"..."

Now, Tsukune and Ura noticed that Kurumu was there and they both blushed furiously. They didn't know how long she had been standing there because they were too distracted by each other.

"Uhm... this isn't what you think Kurumu." Tsukune said as he stood up and made eye contact with her. His cheeks flushed again.

Kurumu glared at him with her eyes. In her eyes Tsukune could see confusion, shock, fear, embarrassment, and sadness. Tsukune also saw her eyes tearing up.

"And just what might I be thinking, Tsukune." Kurumu asked with a hint of sadness. She looked down at the ground and her hair covered her eyes shadowing them.

"I-I-I have to go, I-I'm r-really sorry." Tsukune said as he turned around, grabbed his bag, and bolted away. He ran to his dorm and thrust the door open. He flopped down on the bed and tried to go through the previous events.

First, he told Yukari what he thought of her. Then he bumped into Ura, and they had almost kissed. Finally, Kurumu found Tsukune about to kiss Ura and then he ran away.

Sigh...

Tsukune stared up at the ceiling and tried to relive the past moments where he was lying with Ura.

She was so beautiful with her flowing silver hair and when she put her hand around his neck it was the most shocking feeling ever. He remembered how soft her hands were...

Tsukune sat upright and grabbed the bag of clothes that he had packed earlier.

" I guess going to the pool can't hurt now." Tsukune thought to himself.

Tsukune swung the bad around his shoulder and opened the door once again. He began to walk to the pool but this time instead of going the same way he found another way to the pool. The sun beat down on his back as he saw Mizore and Yukari sitting on the side.

He picked up his pace and threw his bag on the nearest chair and shouted, "Mizore! Yukari!"

They waved him over but before they could say anything else, Tsukune launched himself off the diving board doing a flip and landed with a huge splash. Water was splashed on Yukari and Mizore as they both laughed and jumped in also.

Kurumu crumpled another tissue and tossed it into the far corner of her room into the trashcan.

Why? Why does he not love me but he loves Ura instead...

Letting out a few remaining sniffles; she decided it was time to stop crying.

She stood up off the bed and walked into her bathroom as he leaned over the sink to get a better look of herself in the mirror.

Her eyes were still a bit red and puffy but otherwise you couldn't possibly tell that she was crying.

She brought her right hand to the knob on the sink and turned it sideways, turning on the water.

She brought both hands together below it and gathered a small pool of water and she thrust it upon her face, wetting her face with moist droplets of water.

She reached under the sink and dried her face with a soft cloth and since it was still around 12:00 in the morning she decided to swim again.

Dropping her clothes in a small purse-like bag, she walked towards the pool.

Ura had been sitting on the floor, her knees hugged closely to her chest and her hands wrapped around her knees as her head bobbed over her kneecaps.

Why can't I get him out of my head... Agh! It's so frustrating!

Suddenly, she remembered the moment when she woke up this morning and found Tsukune lumbering over her, his lips pressed against hers...

Even thought I...was the one who pushed him away...I...I wanted...more?... Ura asked herself, unsure of why her actions were contradicting themselves.

And now here she was the one who had initiated it. She was the one who pulled him in. And she was the one who had wanted...him...

NO. NO I DON'T! There is no way I can possibly...like him...right?

*sigh*

Tsukune opened his eyes and found himself in a blurry world. He thrust his legs behind him and moved his arms in rotating orbs and swam forward. Kicking his legs up and down behind him, he accelerated and began to dive.

Damn.

Need air...

Tsukune gave an inward sigh as he turned up towards the surface and pushed off from the bottom of the pool.

In a matter of seconds he broke the surface as his lungs took in the air around him.

Letting out a refreshed sigh he called out to Mizore.

"Hey do you want to play Marco Polo?" Tsukune shouted out as Mizore was nowhere to be found.

Suddenly he saw a dark figure in the water.

He swam forward a bit and he squinted as he tried to make out the figure.

A bright purple bobbed above the surface and Mizore nearly thrust out the water.

"What? Sorry I couldn't hear under the water." Mizore said to Tsukune.

"Oh I was just asking would you like to play Marco Polo?"

"I guess, but we should get more people first. It will be loads of fun with everyone.

"Alright. You want me to go and get them?" Tsukune said as he began to swim to the edge of the pool.

Mizore nodded her head quickly and dropped below the water, dodging splashes from Yukari.

"Be right back!" Tsukune shouted out as he hoisted himself above the pool deck and out of the water. As soon as his feet hit the ground, he immediately felt the heat of the sun beating down on his back.

It was now very hot.

Damn it's hot. Must be like 100 degrees. Whew.

As he turned the corner he came face to face with Ura.

"Ura?"

"Tsukune..." Ura said as she blushed furiously and avoided his gaze.

Once again Ura began to fiddle her fingers and her heart pace quickened.

"Hey umm...I-was-wondering-if-you-would-like-to-swim!" Tsukune quickly said, slurring his words in the process as he gave a little laugh and rubbed the back of his head with an arm.

"I...would like to but I can't. I can't go in the water..." Ura said as she turned away, ashamed and a bit disappointed. Why? She didn't know.

"I know that." Tsukune said.

"But then why did you ask me?"

"Because I...HAVE THIS!" Tsukune said as he stood triumphantly and held up a bag of herbs.

"Is that?"

"Yeah, since I am...you know...I decided to bring some with me." Tsukune said as he flashed a smile at Ura who in turn blushed again.

"So? Wanna go?" Tsukune said as he extended his hand toward hers.

"S-sure..." Ura said and accepted his hand.

"Alright!" Tsukune exclaimed as he gripped Ura's hand and ran towards the pool.
